abc's jon karl is on capitol hill with that. jon? >> reporter: diane, there is some real drama going on right now here in the house. they were supposed to be voting on john boehner's deabt ceiling bill. that is delayed. john boehner's office is right down there, and he is down there trying to get the votes he needs to pasasthis bill. he's not there yet. this is the bill that could increase the debt ceiling by about $900 billion, only about six months worth. democrats don't like that, because it would force the president to come back and go through this all over again. but what boehner is finding is that a lot of those tea party republicans don't want to vote for this. he has put his speakership on the line, saying that he cannot lead if they don't support him. so, the question now is, diane, will he get the votes to pass the republican plan? >> can he get his republicans in line? jon karl, standing by, watching it all. and, of course, while they battle it out on the hill, on capitol hill, there is a secret scramble behind the scenes

jon: no. he seemed to be saying that republicans are holding the white house hostage and saying if you don't accept our plan as a whole, we're going to blow up the economy, that is what he seemed to be saying. >> well the republicans have been at the bargaining table. they have offered concessions and they have offered so many opportunities for compromise but the president basically never would agree to anything, and there was never anything concrete from the president. i think the lack of leadership, even the timing of the leadership, he didn't even get in this until two weeks ago, he should have been starting on this in january. he knew this debt ceiling had to be raised. and he was not being helpful with the budget he put forward. it was a freeze on 2011 spending which is an elevated spending level because of his stimulus package. so i think that he needs to come to the table earlier and provide leadership. i think now congress is saying, well, we're going to have to do something short-term
